Mitt is a lot of things, but honest isn’t one of them, lying is a way of life for him.

I doubt that Romney supports Pedophiles in the boy scouts and I do believe there is a difference between a gay person and a pedophile.

See post #16:

100% of male pedophiles who prey on young boys are HOMOSEXUAL.

What does the Mormon church teach on the subject of homosexuality and will they allow homosexual marriage or homosexuals in leadership roles? Does Romney disagree with his church?

Santorum, like every other registered candidate, signed a pledge to support the party's nominee.

That's the way it is.

Now, to deny Romney the nomination ~ first, get a place to meet. Second, get enough delegates to attend the meeting that Romney can't get the nomination.

Restart the party.

Presumably we can do this lawfully.

they sure understood what he meant by those lines.

ABOs in denial should read that poster/flyer and think about the words that he has just reaffirmed.

He’s had nearly 20 years to reconsider them, to revise them, to recant them. He’s got a conservative wing in his party that will vote or stay home, and he gets a chance to make a statement about the boy scouts because a court has upheld their right to choose their own rules.

So what does Mitt do?

He confirms those old, gay agenda words.

With that much time to reconsider, one can only see this as doubling down.

Conservatives — even ABOs — should pay close attention.

Keep it up boys Obama is ribbing his hands thanks to people like you. I guess you really support “O”

Let them keep thing this. (see Art of War) I will ENTHUSIASTICALLY vote for Romney and am encouraging all my friends and relatives to vote. The survival of our Republic is at stake. Romney may not be my idea of a conservative candidate, but when you have the choice between the Anti-Christ and anyone else, you don't vote for the Anti-Christ.

Let’s see the Mittbots spin this.

The way they always do: with "you're an Obama supporter".

Sounds more like Romney came out in favor of freedom of association.

Boy Scout’s current policy prohibiting open homosexuals from serving as members and leaders.

Leaders yeah right --They are there because that is where the boys are---Anyone who thinks otherwise is naive fool

True conservatives may see it that way, however, with the persistent and ever present public pressure on the BSA to modify their position, his public position is on the wrong side of this issue. Liberals, queers and their supporters will see it as one more “ally” in their quest to destroy the BSA.

Just more “dominoes” falling in line with the queer agenda to open up a target rich environment for queers.

At what point will the public pressure from queers and their hetero supporters become too much for the BSA to resist? Where’s the tipping point?

A Romney spokeswoman, Andrea Saul, said in an e-mail that this remains Romney's position today.

What was quoted to the Romney camp? Was it the part about supporting the Boy Scouts deciding their own rules, disagreeing with their policy or both? See, we don't get a fresh quote here. We're asked to accept the word of the AP (or homosexual bloggers) that they're truthfully representing the Romney campaign.

"Trust but verify" used to be a motto, now it's shoot first and keep shooting in the circular firing squad until Obama wins again.

I want to see Romney’s lips move saying that he supports gay men and woemen serving as leaders in the Boy Scouts.

Here's your chance to see Romney say it:

Romney in 1994

This is the 1994 comment, when Romney was on the National Executive Board of the BSA. I'm not aware of anything directly from Romney saying this is still his position, except for a quote attributed to his campaign spokesman.

Sounds like he said that all people regardless of sexual orientation should be able to participate. His words: “I feel that all people should be able to participate in the Boy Scouts regardless of their sexual orientation.”

Does that sound like freedom of association to you???

Big surprise, people don’t like his honesty if they disagree with his position.

Promoting homosexuality is the ONLY thing he has been consistent and honest about in his entire political career.

Claiming Romney, a man that flip-flops like Bill Clinton, is honest is the most absurd comment I have seen in quite some time.
